BridgeStation service experienced downtime - Tuesday 18th November 2025

Tue, 18 Nov 2025 12:17:00 GMT

BridgeStation has experienced unscheduled downtime today - Tuesday 18th November 2025. This means that the BridgeStation client websites, as well as the support site, are unavailable.

This is due to an issue at the Cloudflare Web Security Service. This is affecting internet connectivity globally, not just BridgeStation. This issue is currently described as: RESOLVED

We apologise for the inconvenience the downtime has caused. We will post more details on the cause and resolution when we have them. We are also posting updates via Email as social media platforms such as X/Twitter are also affected.

UPDATE 14:42:

The issue is being described as resolved and is now being monitored. The BridgeStation sites are restored and are currently up and running as normal, which matches this description from Cloudflare.

UPDATE 14:38:

We are seeing reports that applications are being restored. And the BridgeStation sites themselves look to be back up. We are monitoring this to make sure this is fully resolved.

UPDATE 14:09:

It's being reported that services are slowly being restored, this is occurring globally and BridgeStation is just one of these services. At this moment BridgeStation is still affected.

UPDATE 13:09:

Cloudflare are reporting that a fix is being implemented.

UPDATE 13:03:

Cloudflare are reporting that they are still investigating the issue. Some BridgeStation sites may be up and running, however we are seeing periodic incidents of downtime.

UPDATE 12:35:

We have had a short period of downtime connected to the web-security service that protects BridgeStation. You might find that the issue is resolved, however some may still experience periodic issues. We will post another update as soon as there is more information.

BridgeStation Scheduled Downtime - Server Migration March 2025

Fri, 07 Mar 2025 08:33:00 GMT

BridgeStation will be offline for a short period on Friday 7th March 2025 at around 11pm (GMT). This is whilst we move the service to a new hosting facility. This move will enable the service to grow further as more subscribers come on board, and will provide improved uptime and responsiveness.

Timings:

23:00 (GMT) Friday 7th March 2025

Duration:

Approximately 30 minutes

This downtime will only affect the following portals:

www.lobeg.co.uk (the London Boroughs)

www.bridgestation.co.uk/tfl (Transport for London)

All other BridgeStation users will be unaffected. It is expected that the service will be offline for no longer than 30 minutes.

During this period the support portal will NOT be offline, and is running as usual.

If you require additional information during this time please contact support@bridgestation.co.uk and follow us on X.com for service updates.

Kind regards
